Universal Studios Singapore has set an opening date for its new Minion Land, which will welcome guests on 14 February 2025.
Minion Land, a partnership between Universal Creative, Illumination, and Resorts World Sentosa, offers an immersive experience with unique rides, themed dining, exclusive merchandise, and a show.
Rides in the land include ‘Despicable Me Minion Mayhem’ and a new carousel exclusive to Universal Studios Singapore called ‘Buggie Boogie’.
The former is a motion simulator ride that takes guests through Gru’s super villain laboratory and turns them into Minions for his latest scheme. ‘Buggie Boogie’ is the first-ever Minion dance party-themed carousel.
As for F&B, the ‘Super Hungry Food Stand’ is a themed dining outlet home to classic carnival game kiosks including ‘Down-a-Clown’, ‘Lucky Ducky’ and ‘Balloon Dart’
The new land‘s shopping hub is called ‘Minion Marketplace’ and will include three immersive retail outlets named ‘Sweet Surrender’, ‘Pop Store’ and ‘Fun Store’.
The new show, Minute of Minion Mayhem, stars Gru’s girls Margo, Edith and Agnes. Guests will also meet characters from the Despicable Me and Minions franchises across the land.
Resorts World Sentosa’s $5bn expansion
“With its exciting line up of attractions, retail, and dining – some of which are exclusive to Universal Studios Singapore – Minion Land is poised to be a popular draw for both local and overseas visitors alike,” said Lee Shi Ruh, president of Resorts World Sentosa, earlier this year.
Page Thompson, president of new ventures at Universal Destinations & Experiences, added: “The Minions are such well-loved characters and this newest land builds on the incredible storytelling from the Despicable Me and Minions franchises, brought to life in an exciting, immersive theme park setting. Guests are going to love this new addition.”
The new Minion Land is part of a $5 billion expansion of Resorts World Sentosa, which also includes a new Super Nintendo World.
